Description
MP crashed twice while I was watching a recording of "Wanted" last night. The recording was made from Swiss TV over a DVB-C connection. The first crash caused a blue screen & reboot. It occurred maybe 30-40 minutes into the film which I had to FF substantially to get through the 5 min. initial margin and subsequent ads. It is possible that this is a plug-in problem, not an MP problem, in which case my suspicion would fall on comskip, which doesn't always seem to detect ads correctly (sometimes takes out too much, sometimes too little). Of course, it could just as easily be a codec/filter problem. The second time, maybe 10-20 minutes further into the film, the MP watchdog was able to collect logs, which are attached. Unfortunately, it didn't occur to me to keep the recording for analysis. I have already deleted it, and MP seems to delete permanently instead of to the recycle bin (which only makes sense, given the size of video recordings).
P.S. I had been recording another TV show in parallel when I started watching the film, but the recording had finished before the first crash occurred.
Steps to Reproduce:
Sorry, the problem is not reproducible.
